Next Year’s NASCAR Cup Series: Josh Berry Set to Join Wood Brothers Racing after SHR Downsizes

Josh Berry is currently in advanced discussions to join Wood Brothers Racing in the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season. This move comes as a result of Stewart-Haas Racing downsizing, with Berry replacing Kevin Harvick in SHR’s No. 4 Ford this season. However, SHR announced that it will effectively shut down after 2024. Gene Haas later decided to keep one of SHR’s four charters to field a single-car team next year, without Tony Stewart’s involvement. The seat is expected to be filled by Cole Custer, leaving SHR’s four current Cup drivers in need of finding new teams for the following year.

Berry, who is managed by Harvick’s KHI Management agency, is likely to join Wood Brothers Racing, the oldest team in NASCAR with a history dating back to 1950. The team currently runs the No. 21 Ford, driven by Harrison Burton, whose future with the team after this year remains uncertain. Berry and WBR have been in negotiations for several weeks, working towards finalizing an agreement. The details of the deal, including terms and sponsorships, are not yet clear.

Berry was brought into the racing scene by Dale Earnhardt Jr. in 2021 to drive for JR Motorsports, where he achieved five wins in the Xfinity Series. This year, he made the jump to compete in the premier series with SHR
